Acer 4736z Intel 4500M - Screen orientation option not in Win 7

Intel 4500M - Screen orientation option not appear in Win 7

HI ,

I have Acer 4736z , and installed windows 7 ultimate on it.

I have installed all the latest drivers from the Acer as well as Intel website.

Now my problem is, whenever i try to rotate the screen by using CTRL+ALT+UP arrow or thru INTEL Graphic Setup, screen doesnt rotate. Also seen that in "Screen Resolution" option of Windows 7 not showing the ORIENTATION option.

Please guide me to solve the problem .

thanks in advance.

So, that does not rotate here in screen resolution? i going to try having a look at my intel card what's going on...Meanwhile try to do a quick SFC/Scannow

EDIT:
Can't you really access either to rotate parameters in Intel Control Panel?

 

[ekampreet]

yeah. the option you shown for the ORIENTATION in SCREEN RESOLUTION as you shown.

As Intel shows option to rotate , but those are not working.


Screenshot of SCREEN RESOLUTION screen and Intel Graphics properties. Hope this will help a bit to better understand the problem.

Did you tried to uninstall the latest Intel GMA software from "Programs & Features" then on reboot check if the Tab Rotate Option in Windows 7 reappears? In that case Intel might override the Windows Settings.

Could try either to revert back to a previous Intel GMA version to see if its still the same probs? Or, reinstall your latest GMA if no previous one.

If its a windows 7 errors you might try to run the SFC/scannow command told in the previous post...

I don't know...it could be a bad install, check the driver version, try to install older version or this one.
